Parent who is moving to children over the age of 18 in Norway

You must document your identity. A valid passport is usually valid proof of identity.

You must be over the age of 60.
You cannot have a spouse or cohabitant.
You cannot have parents, children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren in your home country.

You must document that you are the parent of your child. If you have the child's birth certificate, it is usually accepted. In some cases, UDI will ask you and your child to take a DNA test to confirm the relationship.

You must have one of these types of residence permits:
- a permanent residence permit (formerly known as settlement permit)
- a valid residence permit that forms the basis for a permanent residence permit, for example a residence permit for protection, most types of family immigration permits, or a residence permit for self-employed persons with a company in Norway. (You can check in the decision you received from the UDI whether your residence permit forms the basis for a permanent residence permit.)

You must now have an income of at least
NOK 416 512 per year pre-tax
. In addition, your income last year must have been at about the same level. Please check the income requirements, what kind of income that counts and whether you can be exempted from any of the requirements.
If you do not have enough income yourself, your cohabitant or spouse can provide a financial guarantee. He or she must then have an income of at least
NOK 416 512 per year pre-tax
. Please check the income requirements for the person providing a financial guarantee.
